Rare: I don't know the exact statistics but cardiac arrest (sudden death) is considered rare. See the information below re the cause of and possible treatments, however for specific advice please contact a cardiologist licensed in your area. https://patient.info/health/wolff-parkinson-white-syndrome-leaflet

WPW and SCD: WPW is not one of the cardiac rhythm problems that is necessarily associated with sudden cardiac death. WPW is also a disease that has a spectrum of severity and you can discuss this with your doctor and will depend upon how many episodes and the severity.
